ASME
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) was organized in 1880
as an educational and technical society of mechanical engineers. At that time
in American industrial history, mechanical engineering was growing in size and
importance, and the number of mechanical engineers was increasing. More than
one hundred years later, the Society continues to focus on mechanical engineering.
Now, however, the Society has expanded far beyond the United States and North
America and is designated ASME International. With a membership of 125,000
and a staff of 400 in 10 offices across the United States, ASME is a major force
in the technical world.
In addition to Codes and Standards, current ASME activities include:
(a) conducting conferences, exhibits and regular meetings of local chapters to
keep practicing mechanical engineers up to date on new technology;
(b) publishing technical journals, books, technical reports and magazines on
